Verdict

Few can be seriously fancied in a weak affair and the TEAMtalk vote goes to High Policy who has excellent claims at the weights. Reg Hollinshead's charge is well suited by both the trip and the surface having finished runner-up on his last two visits here in handicap company off marks of 76 and 77 and a reproduction should suffice against moderate opposition. Tweed was in excellent heart earlieir this year when rattling up a five-timer on the all-weather bur has been well below her best of late including over timber and is worth opposing while last month's Catterick winner Welcome Back has plenty to find on these terms. Twilight Haze is best watched on his return from a near five-month break while Miracle Island is on the downgrade and Linus needs to show dramatic improvement in the first-time blinkers to figure.
